My encouragement to you: be the coffee bean.
The carrot, egg, and coffee bean represent the three types of people that there are and how they handle conflict and what is thrown at them in life. First, I want you to think of what happens when you put all of these things in boiling hot water.
When you put a carrot in boiling hot water what happens to it? Well it gets softer, it gets weekend by its environment.
When you put an egg in boiling hot water what happens to it? It gets hardened right?
We can be like a carrot when we face difficult situations, like we are in right now, we can crumble from the inside out, we let the fear, stress, and anxiety get the best of us. We can be like an egg, and become hardened, bitter, angry, frustrated, and just not care anymore, and a lot of people right now are saying that they just don't care right now.
We could be like both, but we don't want to be like either of those. We want to be like the coffee bean, when you put the coffee bean into boiling hot water, it transforms the water, it transforms the environment, it's not impacted by it's environment, but transforms.
Being a coffee bean is our opportunity, it's our charge, our power, and it's our responsibility everyday as positive leaders here on earth. We can impact the environments that we are in, we don't have to be the victim of our circumstances.
We can actually change our environment, and that's how we are going to change the world. Pessimists aren't going to change the world and naysayers are going to complain and say you can't do it. The believers, the dreamers, and the positive leaders are who have the greatest impact are like the coffee bean.
Be the coffee bean.
